We study quantum interference effects on the transition strength for strongly
localized electrons hopping on 2D square and 3D cubic lattices in a magnetic
field B. In 2D, we obtain closed-form expressions for the tunneling probability
between two arbitrary sites by exactly summing the corresponding phase factors
of all directed paths connecting them. An analytic expression for the
magnetoconductance, as an explicit function of the magnetic flux, is derived.
In the experimentally important 3D case, we show how the interference patterns
and the small-B behavior of the magnetoconductance vary according to the
orientation of B.Comment: 4 pages, RevTe
